Why use Baselight for sports betting when you can use it for epidemiology?
With the recent Nipah virus outbreak reported in India, it’s worth looking at historical data to understand the scale of the risk.
Across Bangladesh (2001–2024), data shows that ~67% of confirmed Nipah infections resulted in death on average. Check the link shared in the comments.

I've been using the Credence Calibration Game as both a team icebreaker and roadmapping prep (shoutout to @miyazono.bsky.social for showing it to me!). However, the tooling sucked. Now, I rely on @baselightdb.bsky.social and Claude to create context-specific sets of questions, and it's fantastic.

This gets progressively funnier with every use of the term "floppy".
![One of Britain’s most senior police officers has launched an angry tirade against Extinction Rebellion protesters going “all floppy” when they get arrested.
Sir Stephen House, the deputy commissioner of the Metropolitan police, said the tactic of going limp was a “flipping nuisance” as it required extra officers to drag protesters away.
House told a London assembly police and crime committee hearing: “We have asked them to stop being floppy. And that might seem like a silly thing to say, but when we arrest them and pick them up, they go all floppy, which is why you see four or five officers carrying them away. It’s a complete waste of officers’ time, and a complete pain in the neck.”
Extinction Rebellion: how successful were the latest protests?

House also expressed annoyance at how the tactic made the police look heavy-handed. He said: “The problem with them going floppy and four offices carrying them away [is that it] looks to the general public like police are overreacting here. We’re not making them go floppy. They’re just sort of being a nuisance.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:7uvcqt45oqlutlrtgx7bpodq/bafkreie7yqxb4cj2t4gxftiqsno5wgk2kczb5vbtj7wh2b2u5sjtqtdrku@jpeg)

The weekend is here! If you live near a 🚅 station, you get to take a weekend trip in style. But how much can you see? Quite a bit if you're in 🇬🇧, 🇩🇪, or Benelux; this is where some of the best connected cities in Europe lie.

When the Napalm Girl photo showed a child fleeing napalm in Vietnam, it fueled outrage and changed history. Today, the world watches Palestinian children burn on live stream as Israel’s final solution unfolds in Gaza, yet the west remains silent, inept, and indifferent.

Made it to Toronto for Consensus 2025. We'll be pitching Baselight on Thursday at 1630; come by if you're around! Can't promise much, but can promise 3 brilliant minutes from @elreydetent.bsky.social and a cool @baselightdb.bsky.social shirt (while stocks last!).
We're headed to the main stage at Consensus 2025!
We’ve been selected as a semi-finalist for CoinDesk's PitchFest, where we’ll be pitching our vision for a better, decentralized data future.
Thanks to everyone building with us. Time to go make some noise in Toronto!

I was unlucky enough to be in Lisbon on Monday. Always fun when your demand floor vanishes. The power outage was not all that terrible. The fact that @vodafonegroup.bsky.social's network went down immediately, preventing any kind of coordination with the rest of the family, was.

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks.
Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again.
